First of all, thank you for providing the MT4 platform and the Signal Following option, I love it.

Unfortunately I ran into 2 issues that are conflicting with the information (Video & Help file) that is supplied.

Please note: my MT4 system is running 24/7 uninterrupted. Next to that I have a second system that I use to remote monitor the performance.
Also note that my equity is around 410 GPB ($680) and I set a 35% useage limit on the signal setting dialog.
The signal I copied was Fenditest: https://www.mql5.com/en/signals/27755 (Balance 147,387.41 USD)

Unfortunately because of the 1% trading is done in lots of 0.05 and 0.1

Because of this not all orders could be fulfilled.

This alone would be bad for money management, unfortunately I noticed another issue that has devastating effects and is different than specified:

Issue 2: Orders are NOT placed on the signal but appear to be held in a queue and are executed when there is enough balance/margin to do so

Yesterday (26 Feburary 2014) I noticed that because of the lotsizing and the open positions orders could not be processed. I manually closed quite some positions. The Help documentation states that currently open orders are not copied, only when a new order is opened at the signal provider, a new trade should be opened in my account. When I look at the order statement of the signal provider, no trades were placed between 26 feb 16:40 and 27 feb 00:21.

When I closed my orders manually it was around 22:56. Shortly after I closed the open orders, new ones were being placed. And are being placed there and then, at the market. Unrelated to the actual trading of the signal provider.

If the lotsize percentage can not be lower than 1%, we need to know. As this limits our choices when a signal provider has a large balance and/or leverage compared to your account.

I am certain that when these 2 issues are solved (more accurate lotsizing and executing orders only based on actual trade signals of the signal provider) then I would not have lost 50% of my account in a day. Instead I would have been profitable, just as the signal provider, who is doing a very good job by the way. In the current situation it is not safe for me to copy this provider, unless I increase my account with so much money that it can handle the 1% ratio. Only this signal provider is growing at such an enourmous rate, that by the time I have funded my account (if I had the money) they would be trading in 15 or 20 lots.

Any help, fix or patch is appreciated. If it would be possible to manually set a rate (below 1%, let's say in 4 decimals) then the copiers would be extremely profitable.
